LARGE REDUCTIONS IN THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT TO PREVENT A DEFICIENCY. Secretary Rusk tolda Stan reporter to-day that when he assumed charge of the Agricul tural department the appropriation for seeds was nearly exhausted, and he has been com- pelled to make quite alarge number of dis- | charges in order to prevent a deficiency, Sec- y Colman, he said, told him thet he would mpelled to make a reduction of his force at an early day, and he has found that Mr, Col- | man’s prediction was correct. “It has been a | great source of annoyance to me.” the Secre- y “put T have b forced to it by the condition of the appropriations.

M. Book, who is charged with having left his ship (the Pinta) in charge of his exccutive offi- y in Alaska, and returning to the United | States without permission from the depart ment. Admiral Harmony will probably be president of the court. It is understood that eut.-Commander Book was induced to leave his ship as he did from the fact that the boilers had given out, and repairs w not authorized by the department. He wished to represent the facts to the authorities in a proper light, and therefore, instead of waiting for formal J orders, which might have taken months to | reach him, came onto Washlngton without per- mission, | ‘The only simjlar case occurring, in recent | years, where a naval officer left his station | without leave, was that of Capt.

COMMISSIONER WHEATLEY TAKING TESTIMONY. The investigation of the charges recently preferred against Intendent Stoutenburgh of the Washington asylum are being quietly ex- amined into, Commissioner Wheatley, to whom the matter was referred, was busy a greater portion of the day examining wit- nesses. Mr. Stontenburgh was at the Dis- trict buildings this morning, but Commissioner | Wheatley told him that he would not be heard | until after he had examined all the witnesses in | the case, The testimony is all being taken The down by a stenographer, and will be made public as soon as it is allin.

Lowpon, April 9.—A case in the law court yesterday struck the most serious blow to free- dom of criticism that has been given since Rus- kin, ten years ago, was muleted for outspoken | ures; but Ruskin was only fined nominal dam- ages. Accritic is now fined £300, or, with the costs, nearly £1,000. Mr. Ledger, editor and | proprietor of the Era, a leading theatrical ) journal, wrote a critique on Barnes’ Anglo- ‘American troupe, performing what they adver- tised as an “eccentric can-can.” Mr. Ledger | called it highly indecent. No malice was shown, and Mr. Ledger's view was supported by many other experts, but Judge Field charged the jury strongly against Mr. Ledger, urging the necessity of keeping the press in order. Judge Field is very old and deaf as a post, and the press is constantly demanding his resigna- If his view prevailed with all judges criticism would be reduced to a mere passing round of a butterboat. viene oe RUN INTO BY AN ENGINE. A Horse Car Struck and Several Pas- sengers Seriously Injured. Jersey City, N. J., April 9.—Hoboken car No, 145 was struck this morning at the Grove street crossing of the Pennsylvania railroad by a drill engine. Fourmen were severely injured, two dangerously so, anda dozen others were cut by flying glass, &c. The car halted at the crossing as the gates were being dropped for | an incoming train. Itis customary for the gate- | man to begin to raise the gates us the train is passing, so as to have as little delay as possible to pedestrains and vehicles, The gateman failed, however, to notice a drill engine was | going out on the west-bound rails, As soon as | the gates were up, the car moved -on. The horses had just got beyond the west-bound tracks as the drill engine hit the ear just back of the front platform and threw the car half way around so that it stood parallel with the rails, The forward part | of the car was demolished. The driver and two | men on the front platform were tossed into the street head foremost, and one man was caught and squeezed in the wreck. Two were so gerously hurt that they were sent to the ho pital. They are Henry Bock, of 56 Feri street, Hoboken, and Thomas H. 8 Washington street, Hoboken. Chas. of 50 5th street, Hoboken, had his scalp almost torn off. He was attended by Dr. Gray. Frederick Seeger, the driver, had his leg broken and was badly hurt internally, He was conveyed to his home on Jersey City heights. | ‘The injuries of the others were trifling. Their names could not be ascertained. The horses escaped without injury. John Daly, the gate- man, was arrested. THE ABSCONDED CASHIER. His Brother-in-Law in Boston Tells What he Knows of his Operations. Bostox, April 9.—Mr. C. N. Campbell, now in this city, brother-in-law of Cashier P. F. Pratt, who absconded from Anoka, Minn., when ques- tioned by a United Press reporter with regard | to his business connections with Pratt in Anok said: ‘I worked under Pratt in the First Ni | tional bank at Anoka for eight years, from 1877 | to 1885, first as clerk and finally as teller. I} left Anoka in 1836 and came to Boston, and have | heen located here ever since. I never had any | dealings, either jointly or otherwise, for Mr. ; Pratt in stocks or wheet in my life. Our rela- | tions have been somewhat strained since I | learned of his treatment of my sister some six | months ago. At that time I went west, and | brought her and the three children to my house | here. I knew Pratt was operating in stocks, for he told me so himself, and ne also told me that | he had lost. The direct cause of my sister's | separation from Pratt was his intimacy with a Mrs, Jacobson.” Mr. Campbell knew’ notning | of the embezzlement of Pratt until he saw it in the papers. Mrs, Pratt is not well and could not be seen. Mr. Campbell says she knew Pratt was a villain in many ways, but hardly thought he would carry his villainy so far. a THE ATTICA SLEEPER.

Cucaco, April 9.—A dispatch from Manson, | Towa, says jobert Schideler and wife were driving to town yesterday when a spark from Schideler’s pipe ignited the clothing of his wife and as the wind was owe a stiff gale she was enveloped in flames in an instant. Terror stricken she jumped from the bi on one ide and her husband on the other. He did all is power to quench the flames but to no | avail, The grass took fire around them and Mrs. Schidcler was completely enveloped in fiery shroud and died before her husband’ eyes, Schideler’s hands were burned to the bone. He was brought to town and his wounds dressed, but it is feared his hands will have to be amputated. He is nearly crazy from the shock of his wife’s death his own pain, and his physicians say he may die. The family is one of the oldest in the county. having been here for thirty years. Mrs. Schideler was six- ty-five years old and her husband seventy, A City Fired in Four Places. Wrenrta, Kax., April 9.—Early yesterday morning fire was started in four different parts of the city.
